I asked you to save the villain, not to take him as your wife!

"I used it on a staff member in the aquarium, but he didn't have the authority to take me out." Lan Xun felt that Yu Pei was abnormal, but after thinking about it, he still answered.

"That means it was used successfully, right?" Yu Pei continued to ask.

"Yeah." Lan Xun nodded.

"And then you used it on me, and it failed?" Yu Pei asked again.

Lan Xun hesitated for a moment and said, "In fact, it was also used on Lan Jingyao."

"What's the result?" Yu Pei asked.

"It failed due to some reasons that are inconvenient to disclose." Lan Xun replied with a frown.

Yu Pei thought about it and knew the reason.

First of all, there is a sacred bead of the mermaid tribe in Lan Jingyao’s body.

Secondly, Lan Jingyao is a time traveler.

In the end, Lan Jingyao is still the protagonist.

With multiple layers of buffs stacked up, it would be strange if Lan Xun could succeed!

As for the fact that Yu Pei himself was not affected, he also had some speculations.

First of all, he is a time traveler just like Lan Jingyao.

Then there is his SSS-level gene.

If it is the former, then probably only he and Lan Jingyao are not affected.

If it is the latter, then Lan Jingyao's suitors will not be affected.

Lan Xun saw that Yu Pei was silent for a long time, so he took the initiative to ask: "Have you figured out the reason?"

Although Yu Pei already had some guesses, he was really sorry that he had some reasons that were inconvenient to disclose and could not tell Lan Xun his conclusion.

So he shook his head and said, "The samples are not enough. Why don't you try to cast the illusion on a few more people?"

Yu Pei's words immediately silenced Lan Xun.

He was silent for a long time before he said, "You're not going to tell anyone else about this?"

Yu Pei seemed even more surprised than him: "Why should I tell this to other people?"

"Don't you humans want to control us?" Lan Xun asked back.

The "we" he mentioned was obviously him, Lan Jingyao, and the other mermaids.

Yu Pei did not defend the federal top leaders, saying that they were protecting mermaids and so on.

Because in his opinion, this is an exchange of interests.

The Federation gives the mermaids the best treatment, and the mermaids must reproduce high-quality offspring for the Federation.

Only outstanding federal talents are allowed to allow mermaids to leave the aquarium. This is essentially to ensure that the mermaids can get married.

I kind of think, you're bored at home, right?

You want to go out and play, right?

Sure, just find a partner and marry him/her.

These mermaids originally in the Federation may have become accustomed to such things.

Because they may have been educated like this since childhood.

But Lan Xun is different.

As the leader of the mermaid tribe, he can go wherever he wants in the entire ocean.

When was this restriction imposed?

"You used illusion against me before because you wanted me to take you out, right?" Yu Pei said.

"Yes." Lan Xun acted very honestly.

That's right, with his aura and temperament, perhaps he would not even bother to lie.

"I can take you out, but I'm usually very busy doing experiments and may not always have time." Yu Pei was also full of sincerity.

After all, Lan Xun is his mission target, and building a good relationship with Lan Xun will help him complete the mission.

After hearing Yu Pei's words, Lan Xun was silent for a while.

Seeing Lan Xun was silent, Yu Pei continued, "Of course, you know those suitors of Lan Jingyao, right?"

"Yeah." Lan Xun nodded, with a flash of disgust in his eyes.

Obviously, Lan Xun didn't like Lan Jingyao's suitors.

"You can try to use illusion to control one of them. They all have the authority to take you out." Yu Pei gave sincere advice.

"Not appropriate." Lan Xun shook his head.

Yu Pei showed a gesture of listening attentively.

Lan Xun then said: "If they also realize that I am using illusion on them, it will be even more difficult for me to get out."

After all, not everyone is Yu Pei, and not everyone is willing to keep secrets for him.

"So what are you going to do?" Yu Pei asked.

To be honest, he really wanted to know whether Lan Xun's illusion could deal with Lan Jingyao's suitors.

"Tell me when you are free." Lan Xun said.

"Huh?" Yu Pei did not expect this development.

Suddenly I felt like my wife was checking on me. What’s going on?

"Speak!" Lan Xun saw Yu Pei in a daze and frowned unhappily.

It should be said that when a beauty is angry and unhappy, she has a different kind of vivid beauty.

Yu Pei smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm thinking."

After thinking for a while, Yu Pei shook his head: "Although I really want to give you a schedule of my time, but after thinking about it carefully, I found that I may be busy at any time."

Lan Xun's expression changed from a slight frown to a frown.

He felt that he was fooled by Yu Pei.

"Maybe this way." Seeing Lan Xun frown, Yu Pei also felt that he was being a little unfair.

"Speak." Lan Xun still frowned, and his tone was not very good.

"I can take you to my laboratory, but you can only stay in the reception room outside my laboratory. This way, you will know when I am done." Yu Pei said.

"Forget it, I'll think of another way." Lan Xun said, and stood up.

The reason why he wanted to go out was to follow Lan Jingyao.

Yu Pei is not even sure when he will have time, so it’s better to rely on myself than on him.

"It's up to you." Yu Pei didn't force it.

But he still said: "If you need help, you can come to me."

Lan Xun looked back at Yu Pei and asked directly, "Why are you helping me?"

It seemed like Yu Pei had been helping him since the first time he met him.

Regardless of whether he needs Yu Pei’s help or not, help is help.

It shouldn't be of much help, so just pretend it doesn't help.

"This..." Yu Pei didn't know how to explain that he and Lan Xun were in the same group.

After frowning and thinking for a long time, he suddenly smiled and said, "Because you are beautiful."

Lan Xun's brows furrowed instantly.

"Don't think that I won't hit you just because you helped me." After saying this, Lan Xun walked towards the beach with his long legs.

When we reached the beach, our legs turned into gorgeous fish tails the moment we entered the water.

Lan Xun had swam far away, but Yu Pei was still standing there in a daze.

What happened to him?

Why do you suddenly want to hit him?

Yu Pei thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out.

After returning to the laboratory, I was still thinking about this question while counting the materials delivered.

Chen Yue, who was helping with the inventory, saw that Yu Pei had a serious expression and thought that Yu Pei was thinking about some century-old problem.

After counting the materials, I found that Yu Pei seemed to have not figured out the answer yet, so I plucked up the courage to ask.

When Yu Pei heard Chen Yue's question, he seemed to suddenly realize him.

Originally, Yu Pei didn’t want to say it.

But thinking that one person's skills are inferior to others', he told Chen Yue the general situation.
